Story

Helloooo!

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!!

You may or may not know that I recently visited the Gambia with the Sociological Studies Deparment of Sheffield University to support a charity called Village Aid. The purpose of the trip was to see some of the work Village Aid facilitates and to learn more about why those sort of projects are effective and significant. It was an amazing experience and I learned a lot about sustainability and the importance of empowerment-based programmes.

If you want to learn more about Village Aid, visit their website!

They also do work in other African countries!

I thought I would set up this page as part of my fundraising efforts for Village Aid. If you would like to make a donation, it would be very much appreciated!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Village Aid gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

If you would like any more information, feel free to get in touch :)

Thank you so much for visiting my page,
